- Is your machine no longer providing any water, or pressure? Don't throw it away! You can surely fix it! In this video, I troubleshoot the problem of our Delonghi ECAM coffee machine, which has already made 25,000 coffees. I overhaul the pump, switch out a calcified hose from the thermoblock to the brew group, and descale the machine to make it work like new again!
NOTE: these troubleshooting steps and overhauling can be done on not just this Delonghi ECAM 23.420, but nearly all Delonghi coffee machines, and machines from other manufacturers for that matter. Just apply the troubleshooting process.

Thank you!!! I repaired my machine following your directions. I was left with 2 screws at the end but it seems to work regardless! Thanks for taking the time to share your expertise 😊
Wow! Where have you been hiding while I’ve been struggling?!! Awesome video with super clear explanations!
Tom, thank you for your videos I have installed rancilio wands in my EC685 and Magnifica S, and overhauled the pump on the Magnifica as there was no water. I love trying to mend things and your videos certainly gave me the confidence to have a go. Awesome!
Great explanation, I solved the problem of not leaking water in my coffee machine in half an hour. Thank you very much.
Excellent! Always happy to hear a success story!
identical to my machine been using for the last 3-4 years. thanks alot for the time and effort !
stumbled upon your video while searching for some information about hacking a super automatic machine. without measuring mines outlet pressure i can tell another huge factor affecting the espresso aroma, bitterness and oil content is whether the internally used portafilter ise a double layered or a single layered one.
i would be more than delighted if you could also look for a way to hack the filter inside and if it could be modified accordingly. i will do so in the upcoming months and leave feedback here, took a note of this video. cheers.
Tom! Thank you for making this video in such good detail. We replaced the gasket and ball and prolonged our magnifica’s life.
Fantastic! Thanks for the feedback!
Thank you for this video. It was really helpfull
Absolutely brilliant video, I'll begin the process, and let you know how I get on. Thanks
Thank you for the video. Very useful!
Glad it was helpful!
What a fantastic video.. probably the best fix it espresso machine video out there on RUclips.. may I suggest possibly expanding this side of things by fixing other known issues that are on RUclips already but with you educating in your videos being far superior people will come and come again to learn how to fix there machine.. I'm currently going through the milk not being sucked up within the container getting up about a third of the tube.. I changed the giraffe outlet which many have said fixed it but for me its still the same... oh well, will keep searching. Thanks for explaining the pump system in this video.
Hi Stephen, that's mighty kind of you to say! Thanks for watching and for your suggestion. This was a machine I worked on for someone else, so I don't have it anymore. Nevertheless, it is a good suggestion, and I will keep some ideas in mind for the future, in regards to common problems. Cheers! Tom
Hello Tom … I’ve been watching your videos and they are awesome. I have an issue with a Delonghi Magnifica that I am hoping you might be able to assist with troubleshooting guidance? The problem is that it is not drawing water. See video (ruclips.net/video/iqiCtUTYQ1I/видео.html ) showing my exact problem. Do you have any thoughts on how I might solve or troubleshoot this? Fingers crossed and thank you for your superior videos!

Wow! I love you man!!! You freaking saved my coffee machine! I followed the steps and found that the 'splitter' near the dispersion nozzles was completely caked. OMG, I love my machine and that I fixed it!!! You're the best.
One of my favorite things about having a RUclips channel, is hearing that I helped someone fix their machine. So thanks for the feedback! 👍🍀
This video is great! I decided to buy a new pump ($25) but either way your instructions were clear and right on target!! Thank you so much!! The only difference I had was that after removing the clips, the capacitor was glued in. I chipped away at the glue but did not need to remove it all, just enough to get it loose. I chose not to reglue it. Thank you again for your help!!!!!
Great to hear! Good luck fixing your machine!
Pump is installed and machine works perfectly!! Tomorrow morning I’ll really be celebrating!
@@dmyers1099 Good news!
Thank for posting, I think I have an issue with pump so going to wait until parts arrive.
This is truly a Coffee Corner, not just manual machines and expensive machines.
Haha, thanks. I like fixing things. I hope this video can be helpful to others. This little fully automatic does make a pretty good cup, with good beans. 👍

Success! Thank you!
Awesome!
excellent video. if you can't be bothered to order the teflon tube that was scaled up, get some CLR (or simple muriatic acid aka hydrochloric) and squirt it under pressure to clear the scale. Does a brilliant job - Teflon Tubing will last forever!
Thanks so much for the feedback, and for the tip! Is there anything like CLR in Europe?
You really don’t know what your doing, you made the whole scenario so bloody hard
Thanks
Thank you so much sir'Tom❤
You're most welcome!
Thank you for the video.
All I can say about Delonghi coffee machine is that it’s garbage. I bought one, always used “water filter” + I did descaling regularly but got this problem. It was under warranty so I could replace it with a brand NEW and again the same problem happened. Delonghi must know about this specific issue but they don’t care.
Hi Saleh, it's the nature of the beast. If you live in an area of really hard water, this can happen. I always filter my water with a Brita filter, and descale, and I never have any issues. Cheers!
@@TomsCoffeeCorner nice idea
Hey! You're that guy who makes the 'Isn't cool how they do this in Germany' videos!
Mine is an ECAM 22.110. The steamer didn't foam right for a few days, and then finally gave up. Barely any steam coming out. Only a few drops, when I turn it w/o steam. When I do a rinse, it spews a few drops from the main nozzles, but that's it. Just keeps going and going for a VERY long time. (I have had air bubble issues and other hurdles during all this, but they seem to be solved.) I took the pump apart, and it looks fine. Sounds fine in test mode. When I disconnect the skinny hose just after the pump and turn it on, water shoots out (as in your trial). I cleaned both tiny hoses, you had issues with. They weren't clogged, and it made no difference. Someone did a video with HUGE amounts of scale in the heater, but when they did that "pump trial", scaley water came spewing out of their heater. Mine only leaked water, so definitely not built up like theirs was. Took apart the flowmeter. Nothing to see. I'm at a loss. I don't mind ordering parts, but I have no idea where the problem is. No bubbles in the watertank. Any ideas, please? Thanks in advance! 🙏
Well it still sounds like you have constricted water flow somewhere. I'd localize the problem by going downstream of the pump, and seeing where the water stops. That's how I found the calcified hose in this model. Cheers!
Great video, I have this coffee machine with a similar fault, I’ve thoroughly cleaned it inside it and out. I can get hot water in the spout and the rinse cycle works on both spouts by as soon as I try making a coffee, it’s trying and trying to push coffee through and it’s just dribbling in. I’ve had the infused apart and cleaning it all day including that little sprink loaded pin on the piston but to free it up but still no luck 😢
Hi! Well, I would suggest going through the whole video and troubleshooting your machine. It could be that your OPV is partially kaput, or maybe your pump has lost compression. Good luck!
@@TomsCoffeeCorner thanks for the comment, are most of these delonghi parts universal across their plat form?
They are pretty much the same, coffee machines sharing parts, and espresso machine sharing parts.
Just to clarify, I will add that the blue electric component on one of the electric cables that supplies electricity to the pump, stuck on the side of the pump near its connectors, is not a capacitor but a thermal fuse. Just from the series connection to the pump coil alone, it cannot be a capacitor. The entire current would have to go through it to the pump, and the capacitor has a very small capacity for that. Translated through google translator, so I hope it's understandable. Thanks for the video. I remain with regards and wish you all the best.
Thanks for that input. At first glance it looked like a capacitor, and I do not know where the lead goes away from the pump. But yes, a thermal fuse would make sense. They also make them for the thermoblocks themselves, but they look different. Cheers!
Hi, great video! I have the exact same machine and stumbled across this video looking for milk frother upgrades. Do you know if it’s possible to upgrade the milk frother on this machine?
I am not sure. Anyone else tried it?
had a similar problem BUT could not get a new hose during covid... since it was all taken apart you might have proactively replaced the heater too - only a matter of time with so much scale. btw if it corrodes and starts leaking, you can plug / reinforce the problem areas with steel weld epoxy - I had to do it since there were absolutely no parts available at the time
Fantastic video! Thank you. I was able to open up the coffee machine, clean all the tubes, replaced the water pump, ran the descaling program. Everiyhing seems to function fine, but still... no water :( any other options? Or throw it in the bin? Thanks a lot.
Hmm, well you have to backtrack where the water stops flowing. If it flows out of the pump, then maybe the valve is the culprit. If not the valve, then maybe a hose yet. And so on. Try to localize the issue.
Thumbs up video. I have similar symptoms but the water comes out fine from the steam pipe. Could the problem be the infuser? I would clean the infuser and the first coffee after that is fine (although flow doesn't seem great), but not the second time. I can see the coffee powder in the tray instead.
If I remember right, the water goes from the heater to the valve that switches between hot water and brewing first, then goes further to the brew unit. Perhaps there is some congestion there between the valve and brew unit. You will have to do a little troubleshooting to be sure. Good luck!
Sorted problem below! Discovered best to remove rubber seal from connector, fit onto end of hp tube THEN push tube into joint. It goes further in making replacing the clip a doddle. Everything back together and switch on. New pump works great but water spraying about inside! Assumed it was the recently redone joints, but NO it came from another untouched hp joint. Discovered the metal clip had broken on one side, and water was dribbling out of the joint. No wonder there was no crema on my test coffee! Replaced missing clip from a strong paperclip, may have to do it again if I can't source proper replacements.
Thanks for the feedback, Chris! Good idea with the paper clip. That seems to be about the same thickness of the original clip.
Hi. Thanks for great video. Do you have link for o-rings you replaced in the valve?
Well, there's different sizes so I'd measure out what you need with a calipers before ordering. Cheers!
Hi, I also have an issue with my ESAM 3300 Delonghi. I have been looking everywhere for help so maybe you can? The coarseness regulator is loose and after making one cup of coffee it vibrates from the 3-4 setting all the way to the 7. Is there a way for me to tighten this without having to return it? Thank you.
also as a side note, i always use citric acid fro decalsification and never had any trouble with any pressurized steam/boiler machine up till now. so no, paying much more to specific decalcifiation products (which also mainly consists of citric acid) is unnecessary.
Hi!
Thanks for your video!
I think I have the same two lines to change...
Regarding to the website for the coffee machine parts,the first line must be the longest.
Do you know the length of the other one please?
You have to measure yourself, to make sure. There's a bunch of different lengths. Cheers!
Thanks - I descale whenever the machine tells me to. So is there a way to check the lines up from the pump? If I can blow air through them would that tell me if they were clear? Or do I remove the lines and soak them in descaler solution? Why would they steamer lines work but not the other lines? Do you know if there is a way to replace the front door piece? I cant seem to find the part anyway and I can’t find any videos or info on that …I might be out of my league here but I love my machine !!! Thank you
Hi Zee. If you watch the whole video, you will see how I troubleshot the problem. Just work your way downstream from the pump. I would suggest buying new lines if they are clogged. Cheers!
Hi Tom thanks for beneficial videos
I have a delonghi magnificia coffee machine and it stopped working suddenly could you please help me?
Hi there! Sorry, but I cannot help from a satellite position. You need to localize the issue. Try following the troubleshooting routine I did, if you have a similar problem.
Hey Tom, I have followed your steps and have gone as far as replacing the main mechanical valve above the spout. Exact same issue, basically I get steam and water out of the hot water spout, but as soon as I try making a coffee or completing a rinse cycle it goes super quiet and nothing comes out of the spout, but even a drip.
Have you checked all the lines for calcification? Were you able to localize where the water is getting held back?
So I get water pressure from the pump, the. That line you connected to the second white check valve I took that apart from the top portion and ran the clean cycle and I got water coming out of it at good pressure. The line actually dispensing coffee I got new with the new main Cylinder valve. I’m getting steam and water out of hot water spout. What exactly does that hose do that’s coming out of the first white check valve ? I don’t see anything flowing out of that one but I’m not sure if it’s supposed to? I also tried changing the diffuser kit. What are the chances it’s the first white check valve?
Tom, I found your video really well done. My De Longhi Magnifica S ECAM 22.360 makes coffee just fine but when I try to make either hot water or frothy milk, I get the error “water circuit empty fill water circuit”. It prompts me to “Hot water OK?”. If I hit OK nothing comes out of the water spout and keeps prompting me the same “Hot water OK?” Message over and over. Any idea what I could do?
Boy, I don't know about that one. If it can build up pressure for a coffee extraction, it should also be able to heat up to steam. Maybe there's a temp sensor somewhere for steam that is defective, and not allowing the thermoblock to heat up...but I am not sure. Good luck to you!
Thanks for the video, I was able to work on my ECAN350.35 ( similar to that on the video), now. I got two smalls parts out and I did not see were they came through, then I ask you, Is there a place were I can find the maintenance manual, or disassembly manual?
Hi there, sure thing! I’m afraid I don’t know of have any maintenance or disassembly manual for this machine. Maybe if you go back through the video, you might be able to see where the parts go. It’s always good to take pictures along the way. Good luck! 👍🏻🍀
@@TomsCoffeeCorner You're right. an 100% sure, your video is amazing, good. O got it ,,, Many thanks

Hi Tom,
Thanks a lot for all your vid
I bought my DeLonghi Magnifica XS from Costco MN
120 v - 60 HZ 1250 W
Type ECAM 22110 B
P= 1.5 MPa (15 bar)
When I took it to North Africa and by mistake I plugged it in 220 V
I smelled little burning. I still can turn it on I can hear the coffee grinding all screen look good with green and yellow light but it doesn't dispense water nor a coffee.
Please help.
Well, there will be some issues there. I am actually surprised the screen turns on, as the circuit board and electronics were designed for a different voltage amplitude and frequency. The pump is also designed for 120V, which means that 220V will not be compatible. Or do you have it plugged into a transformer? I have one like this: amzn.to/403c71S
Does I saw you going here and there talking about living in Germany?
Hi Tom! Thanks for this video. My machine "died" -- I steamed milk and made espresso and when I went back to make another I smelled something electrical hot or burning. Any thoughts on what it could be? It's a Magnifica XS, purchased new in 2014. Thank you!
Sorry, I am not sure without seeing it. Doesn't sounds good though, if it smells like it's burning. Might be time for a replacement after 10 years. Cheers!
Hi Tom. Thanks for a really god video. I have a problem with the water not stopping until the water tank is empty. When I brew a cup of coffee, it stops for two seconds when it's supposed to stop, then it starts flowing again and continues until the water tank is empty. Same when I start or shut down the machine Do you know what could be wrong with it?
My machine is a Delonghi Magnifica S ECAM21.117.W
Sincerely
Ingeli
Oh gosh, I don't know but sounds like something that has to do with the circuit board...
hi, after replacing the infuser which was broken the machine works fine but it only grinds for 3-4 seconds regardless of the setting. I know this is a problem that happens to others too, how can I solve it?
Hi! please help! my coffee machine is delonghi ecam 20.11x. my machine is not performing the cleaning process its is not discharging water and it will give an error s ateady loght of triangle with exclamation inside ⚠️ . i read the manual means it is dirty inside i tried to clead but nothing happened. but if i do run the test it will drip water and grinding will work. but if i will use it normally it won’t perform the cleaning process. please help! thank you in advance!
Well, each instance will have to be troubleshot individually. If you watch the video, you can see how I localized the issue on this particular machine, but it can differ on a case by case basis. Good luck!
Hi Tom. Great video. I have a problem with my ecam. When it rinses water goes straight into the drip tray and not through the spouts. This happens most but not all the time. Also same when making coffee. 9 times out of 10 nothing comes out of spout and we waste coffee. Is this an easy fix thanks?
Hmm, that sounds strange. The spout is connected I think to the steam valve (bypassed in coffee mode), so I'd work backwards and see where the connection has been lost.
Hello ! I have the same problem with Magnifica S. Did you manage to find out the cause? I suspect a bad seal in the infuser cylinder .
Mr. Tom my Delongui not work, when i turn on all icons blink and after Alert is ON. after that any buttom no work. I checked infyser and it is stuck up part machine, do you know how can i fix it ?
2:05
Was told that this valve (by the way what’s that called?) makes this machine super quiet, not sure how true that claim is, and not sure that could be useful for our machine other than this Delonghi?
Thanks

Hi - I replaced my pump on the Delonghi Magnifica because it was not delivering water anywhere - the steamer now works but the coffee part is not delivering any liquid - any suggestions ? - I’m an amateur but I’m willing to try ! If so do you know where I can get the parts and directions in the U.S. Thank you
Hi! My first guess would be the lines - they may be clogged with calcium. How often do you descale? You might need to troubleshoot up the line from the pump, to see where the bottleneck is. Cheers! Oh and spare parts in the USA I am not sure yet. Anyone know?
Thanks for the video and the breakdown. I have a machine with the same guts but it is the dynamica. I am getting an error of flashing water tank, error light, and steam. Instructions say to turn steam knob to steam but when I do nothing happens. The pump doesn’t run. If I unplug the hose after the valve (like you did in the video) the pump will run no problem. Essentially there is no back pressure at that moment. When I plug that hose back into the heating block the pump won’t run even for a second and the error pops up again. It is like there is a pressure sensor somewhere being tripped. I have no scale in the machine. Any ideas? Thanks.
Sorry, but it's hard to diagnose without seeing the machine. Is it still under warranty that you could return it? If it's not reacting to the steam valve, then it might be that the reed switch is burnt out.
@@TomsCoffeeCorner thanks for the reply. Turns out that the heating block was blocked somehow. Didn’t find any scale but I worked a guitar string through and now got it flowing again! Works great now. Thanks again.
Hi Tom, I am having real difficulties pushing the narrow high pressure pipes into the joint above the new pump enough to push in the spring clip. It fits over the pipe and holds in the metal ferule near the end of the pipe, right? I then lost the clip somewhere in the machine! I might have to use some wire instead if I can't find the original or buy a spare.
Hi Chris, where are you located? I know where to get these clips in Europe. Yes, you have to push in the line with the ferrule on it quite hard, and I know, it's a little slippery to grip. Good luck!
I am in Scotland, Inverness. I ordered some 1mm thick R clips from Ebay which can be bent to shape to replace a broken clip. Stronger than a paperclip. I never found your pointer to the European spares supply you mentioned on the video. What was the website address?

Hello everyone! I want to confirm that citric acid and wine acid are safe to use for descaling.I use them for about three years now! However, the comercial vinegar, or acetic acid is not good for the gaskets and the little ball in the pump, because it deforms them, that leading to leaks and malfunctioning.
Hi Tom, please forgive if you’ve seen my post below as replies to other commenters. Not the best at navigating all of RUclips!😊 See below:
“Hello Tom … I’ve been watching your videos and they are awesome. I have an issue with a Delonghi Magnifica that I am hoping you might be able to assist with troubleshooting guidance?

Fingers crossed and thank you for your superior videos!”
Hi there! Alright, so it's trying to draw water, but it cannot. It sounds to me like it's trying to draw water from an empty tank, but that's not the case. I would try removing the tank, and pushing the spring in on the bottom, to make sure water comes out. Then, you will have to see if water makes it from the tank, to the water counting wheel, and to the pump. Even if that's the case, you will need to make sure water flows from the pump to the thermoblock. Sometimes, an air pocket forms somewhere in the lines...you would have to locate the air pocket, and prime that line with a turkey baster or syringe.
Has your machine been turned off for a long time? Hope this helps.

Tom, thank you for this troubleshooting guidance! I so much appreciate it. Funny you should ask if the machine has been turned off for a while…yes, it has, about three years. Water is definitely able to come out of the tank…I pushed the spring and that works. Can you clarify where the water counting wheel is located or what it looks like? .. I’m going to get right on these other steps… thanks so much for the guidance. Fingers crossed!
(Sorry for this “silly” question.. When you say prime the pump with a turkey baster or syringe do you mean fill the syringe/baster with water and then flush it through the hose with one end of the hose still attached? :-) )
@@dmmc2475 If it was turned off for so long, then likely an air pocket formed. You need to find that air pocket, and prime that tube, by removing it and shooting water up there. It's kind of a pain. You also have to be really careful, since you are working with an electrical device, water, and pressure.
Honestly, priming a water circuit is more of an advanced thing, that maybe a repair shop should do, if you are unsure of how to proceed. Cheers! Tom
@@TomsCoffeeCorner I think you're right. It's starting to feel complicated. Do you do repairs? If so, I'd love to send my machine into you for a look. Please advise on the process for doing that. Thanks so much.
Mate I literally have the same issue as you in this video. Followed all steps up until you found the real guilty one but my machine is way more complicated than yours it seems. The brown one didnt have to be replace neccesarily? So we keep that? And the other one is the guilty one. How do i find that specific piece?
Hi Tim, right. The brown hose did not need replacing. You can find hoses here: www.juraprofi.de/Ersatzteile-fuer-DeLonghi-Kaffeevollautomat/ECAM-20-116-B-Magnifica-S/Schlaeuche-Verbinder.html?ts=3_1722_18
